((e)) a statement of conformity and a reference to the present Directive.
 11.  11.1. Reassessment is similar to an initial assessment except that experience gained during previous assessments shall be taken into account. Surveillance on-site assessments are less comprehensive than reassessments.
 11.2. 
The interval between on-site assessments, whether reassessment or surveillance, depends on the proven stability that the technical service has reached.
 11.3. When, during surveillance or reassessments, non-conformities are identified, the competent authority shall define strict time limits for corrective actions to be implemented.
 11.4. When the corrective or improvement actions have not been taken within the agreed timeframe or are not deemed to be sufficient, the competent authority shall adopt appropriate measures, such as conducting a further assessment or suspending/withdrawing the designation for one or more of the activities for which the technical service has been designated.
 11.5. When the competent authority decides to suspend or withdraw the designation of a technical service, it shall inform the latter by registered mail.

'Check that the vehicle identification number is placed in such a way that it cannot be obliterated or deteriorate';
the report shall include a statement such as: “the place of stamping the vehicle identification number fulfils the requirements of Section 3.2.2 of Annex I”;
((f)) when test methods other than those prescribed in the regulatory acts are permitted the report shall include a description of the test method used for performing the test.
The same applies when alternative provisions in the regulatory acts may be used;
((g)) pictures taken during testing, the number of which shall be decided by the approval authority.

3.4. Where the level of control appears unsatisfactory, or when it seems necessary to verify the validity of the tests carried out in accordance with point 3.2, the inspector shall select samples to be sent to a technical service to perform physical tests.
3.5. Where unsatisfactory results are found during an inspection or a monitoring review, the approval authority shall ensure that all necessary steps are taken to restore conformity of production as rapidly as possible.


ANNEX III


ANNEX XV  0.  0.1. This Annex lays down the list of the regulatory acts for which a manufacturer may be designated as technical service in accordance with Article 41(6).
 0.2. It also includes appropriate provisions concerning the designation of a manufacturer as technical service, to be applied in the framework of the type-approval of vehicles, components and separate technical units concerned by Part I of Annex IV.
 0.3. However it does not apply to manufacturers which apply for small series approval in accordance with Article 22.
 1.  1.1. 
In accordance with Article 41(6), a manufacturer may only be designated as technical service for category A activities.
 1.2. 
It covers the checking of compliance with those provisions which do not necessarily require measurement. This is the case for the assessment of the design against legislative requirements.

For example, “check compliance of the location of the fuel tank in a vehicle with the provisions of point 5.10 of Annex I to Directive 70/221/EEC” has to be understood as part of “to carry out test”.
